I just ended my chemo treatments 2 weeks ago and I would watch his and a few other vloggers to get me through. I hope your health is doing well and you come out of it 100%. Stay healthy!

    I'm gonna give it a shot with the hidden logos, though I'm not sure if these are the right ones given how well obscured they are throughout the entire video 😂
    12:37 A part of it on the left side of the white building
    32:16 On your right. Specifically on the black window cover of the Peloton Store
    35:18 On the left side of the brick wall.
    They sure are deeply hidden though 👌
    Thanks for the awesome walk by the way, I hope you could do a couple of narrated walks in the near future as well..
